Yes, too much flow through the radiator does not allow the water to cool properly (or enough) so it returns to the motor hotter than it should be, which in turn raises the temperature even more.

Your golf 4 is overheating and you changed the thermostat could the water pump need replaced?

It is very common for the impeller of a VW to break apart. The result is engine overheating and no heat. Usually, the the radiator remains full unless severe overheating causes a boilover and consequent loss of coolant. Also expect that the engine becomes hot yet radiator and heater hoses remain cool. If this happens, replace the water pump. It is usually convenient to replace the timing belt at this time.

Can you remove a thermostat from a 2001 taurus for summer and drive till fall?

Yes It is not good to run any car without a thermostat. Initially the car will run too cold and use extra fuel as the choke will remain on, then it will overheat as the thermostat is needed to slow the flow of water through the radiator for it to cool effectively.


What could cause radiator fluid not to exit the out through the thermostat hose which has a new thermostat The car does not over heat and the radiator leaks at hoses and cap Top hose gets hot.?

If the top hose gets hot that means that the thermostat HAS opened. Thermostats remain closed until the engine warms up then the thermostat only opens enough to keep the temperature at about the set-point temperature of the thermostat. Just repair the radiator and enjoy the vehicle.

Could your thermostat cause you not to have heat?

Certainly. If the engine coolant is flowing freely into the radiator, it will remain quite cool and the coolant that circulates into the heater core will never warm up. The thermostat blocks the coolant from entering into the radiator if the temperature is below the set level on the thermostat. Usually 185, or 195 degrees F. Engines don't run as efficiently at the lower temperature either, so if the thermostat isn't working right, replace it.

How do you replace the thermostat on a 2006 Chrysler pt cruiser?

Locate top hose of radiator and follow it towards engine across front of engine and you will find the thermostat housing there on the passenger side of the engine. Loosen hose clamps on both sides of the hose for easy removal of thermostat housing. there are two bolts on the thermostat housing. Remove both bolts and remove housing from the engine. Most times, the thermostat will remain in the housing as you pick it up off the engine. Pull out the thermostat from the housing, fit the seal that comes with the new thermostat on the part of the thermostat that sits on the sill of the engine. Place the thermostat on that sill, it will only sit correctly in one spot because of a nipple on the thermostat. replace the housing and the bolts, making sure that there isnt any gap between the engine housing and the thermostat housing. Tighten bolts, replace hose onto thermostat housing and tighten hose clamps on both ends of the hose. test system for any leaks....
